Description
- This application is based on and claims the benefit of priority from
Japanese Patent Application No. 2022-182447, filed on 15 November 2022 - The present invention relates to a production method of a pneumatic tire.
- Conventionally, a pneumatic tire has been known which is equipped with a puncture prevention function whereby a hole in the tire formed during puncture is automatically plugged by a sealant layer provided to the tire inner surface. For example,
Patent Document 1 discloses a pneumatic tire in which a sealant layer is formed by coating a sealant material of substantially cord-like shape in a spiral shape continuously along the tire inner surface. - Patent Document 1:
Japanese Unexamined Patent Application, Publication No.2016-78817 - In a tire having a sealant layer on the inner surface, there is an issue of the heat dissipation decreasing due to the sealant layer. In particular, when the radiation of heat generated by the portions on both sides in the tire-width direction of the steel belt embedded in the tread deforming is inhibited by the sealant layer, there is concern over leading to damage of the tire caused by physical property variation due to heat. For example, there is a possibility of separation occurring from the decline in adhesion between the steel belts and rubber.

tire 1 includes a pair ofbeads 10 provided on both sides in the tire-width direction,tread 20 forming a contact surface with the road surface, and a pair ofsidewalls 30 extending between the pair ofbeads 10 and thetread 20. - The pair of
beads 10 constitute a tire-radial direction inside portion of thetire 1. In order to raise the rigidity of this portion, thebead 10 includes high modulus rubber. Thebead 10 includes anannular bead core 11 made by covering a plurality of wound bead wires made of metal with rubber. Thebead core 11 plays the role of fixing thetire 1 to the rim. - The
tread 20 includesbelts 21, and tread rubber 25 arranged at the outer side in the tire-radial direction of thebelts 21. The tread rubber 25 has acontact surface 25a which makes contact with the road surface. A plurality ofmain grooves 26 extending in the circumferential direction are formed in thecontact surface 25a.Fig. 3 shows a contact portion in a state of thecontact surface 25a actually contacting the road surface. As shown inFig. 3 , the portion in which thecontact surface 25a contacts the road surface makes a substantially elliptical shape. As shown inFig. 2 andFig. 3 , in thetire 1, the tire-width direction length of thecontact surface 25a is defined as a contact width TW of thetread 20. - The
belt 21 is a member reinforcing thetread 20. Thebelt 21 of the embodiment is a two-layer structure including aninside belt 22, andoutside belt 23 arranged on the outer side in the tire-radial direction of theinside belt 22. Theinside belt 22 andoutside belt 23 both have a structure in which belt cords such as a plurality of steel cords are covered with rubber. Theinside belt 22 is larger in tire-width direction length than theoutside belt 23. Therefore, each of theends 21A on both sides in the tire-width direction of thebelt 21 is configured by an end in the tire-width direction of theinside belt 22. It should be noted theoutside belt 23 may be larger in tire-width direction length than theinside belt 22. Furthermore, thebelt 21 may be a single layer structure, or may be a structure of three or more layers. - The
sidewall 30 includessidewall rubber 31 which constitutes a side wall surface on the outer side of thetire 1. Thesidewall rubber 31 bends the most upon thetire 1 making a cushion action, and normally is configured by flexible rubber having fatigue resistance. - Although omitted from
Fig. 2 , a carcass ply constituting a ply serving as the backbone of thetire 1 is embedded inside of thetire 1. This carcass ply is embedded inside of thetire 1, in a mode passing between the pair ofbead cores 11, the pair ofsidewalls 30 and thetread 20. This carcass ply, for example, has a configuration in which the plurality of ply cords consisting of an insulative organic fiber cord such as polyester or polyamide, or the like are covered by rubber. The above-mentionedbelt 21 is arranged on the outer side in the tire-radial direction of this carcass ply. In addition, although omitted fromFig. 2 , the inner liner as the rubber layer constituting the inner wall surface of thetire 1 is provided spanning between the pair of beads, at the tire inner cavity side of the carcass ply. This inner liner is configured by air permeation resistant rubber, whereby the air inside the tire inner cavity is prevented from leaking to outside. - As shown in
Fig. 2 , thetire 1 according to the present embodiment further includes asealant layer 60. Thesealant layer 60 is arranged over the entire circumference in the tire-circumferential direction, in a region of the tire inner cavity surface configured by the inner liner corresponding at least to thetread 20. Thesealant layer 60 is formed by a belt-like sealant material being wound along the tire-circumferential direction on the tire inner surface. As the sealant material, a material having stickiness is favorably used, and is pasted to the tire inner cavity surface by the stickiness thereof. The thickness of thesealant layer 60 of at least 2 mm is said to be favorable. - A production method of a tire according to an embodiment for producing the
tire 1 equipped with the above configuration will be explained below. The production method of a tire according to the embodiment relates to a method of forming the above-mentionedsealant layer 60 on thetire 1 obtained by vulcanizing a green tire, which is the source article of thetire 1 molded so as to be the above-mentioned configuration. -
Fig. 4 is a flowchart showing a production method according to the embodiment in process order. As shown inFig. 4 , as a production method of the tire of the embodiment, first, a contact width of thetire 1 is measured (Step S1). The contact width of thetire 1 is a contact width TW of thetread 20, as shown inFig. 2 andFig. 3 . It should be noted that measurement of this contact width TW measures at conditions based on standard internal pressure and maximum load capability of a tire standard such as JATMA, ETRTO and TRA in accordance with the size of thetire 1. By measuring the condition at which the load is the maximum in this way, the contact width TW reaches the maximum contact width of thetire 1. - It should be noted that the contact width TW can be determined by a database associating the contact shape and structural information (experimental prediction model), or determined by contact analysis such as FEM, in addition to directly measuring, for example.
- Next, as shown in
Fig. 2 , thecenter 10C between ends on the inner side in the tire-radial direction of the pair ofbeads 10 is set at the tire-width direction center, the tire-width direction length from this tire-width direction center until one end w1 of the contact width TW is defined as CW1, and the tire-width direction length from the tire-width direction center until the other end w2 of the contact width TW is defined as CW2. It should be noted that, in the embodiment, since the structure of thetire 1 is left/right symmetrical, thecenter 10C between the pair ofbeads 10 established as the tire-width direction center matches in the tire equatorial plane S1 in the tire-width direction. Then, the larger by comparing CW1 and CW2, is prescribed as CW (Step S2). InFig. 2 , CW1 on the left side is defined as CW. Next, the length from the tire-width direction center to each of theends 21A in the tire-width direction of thebelt 21 is defined as BW, and the tire-width direction length SW of the sealant material coating area on one side in the tire-width direction from the tire-width direction center is prescribed as CW<SW<BW (Step S3). Next, asealant layer 60 is formed by the sealant material coating (Step S4). -
Fig. 5 is a view showing an example of a method specifically implementing Step S4, and is an exploded view showing a part in the circumferential direction of a tire inner surface to which thesealant material 61 is pasted and thesealant layer 60 is formed.Fig. 5 indicates the tire-circumferential direction by R, and indicates the tire-width direction by X. As shown inFig. 5 , thesealant layer 60 is formed by one belt-like sealant material 61 which is pasted while being wound along the tire-circumferential direction on the tire inner surface. Thesealant layer 60 has a plurality of annular circlingparts 62 and plurality oftransition parts 63 formed by thesealant material 61. - The
sealant layer 60 is formed by applying the belt-like sealant material 61 on the entire circumference of the application region in the tire-width direction of thesealant material 61 on the tire inner surface, while being wound around along the tire-circumferential direction, and while transitioning the path of this circling to a side of one direction (right direction inFig. 5 ) of the tire-width direction every one turn. The annular circlingparts 62 are arranged in parallel in the tire-width direction by a plurality ofsealant material 61 extending in the tire-circumferential direction. In the embodiment, as shown inFig. 2 , the tire-width direction length SWx2 in the sealant material coating area becomes the coating area length in the tire-width direction of thesealant material 61. It should be noted that thesealant material 61 may be pasted to the tire inner surface while transitioning to the tire-width direction every one turn; however, it may be pasted to overlap for two turns or three turns at the same location in the tire-width direction. The coating area length in the tire-width direction of thesealant material 61 is an integer multiple of the pitch width, which is the tire-width direction length of the circlingpart 62. - It should be noted that, in order to set the coating area length of the tire-width direction of the
sealant material 61 as an integer multiple of the pitch width, which is the tire-width direction length of the circlingpart 62, and establish so as to satisfy CW<SW<BW, it can be done by adopting the following such calculation step. In other words, the value of the integer satisfying (CWx2)<(pitch width x integer) < (BWx2) is calculated when any pitch number. At this time, in the case of there being no integer value satisfying this equation, the pitch width is varied. For example, in the case of CW being 85 mm, BW being 95 mm, and pitch width being 12 mm, the integer value becomes 15, and the SW satisfying CW<SW<BW is determined as 90 mm, for example. - In
Fig. 5 , thereference symbol 61A indicates the winding start of thesealant material 61, and thereference symbol 61B indicates the winding end of thesealant material 61. Thesealant material 61 is continuously pasted from one end side to the other end side (left side to right side inFig. 5 ) in the tire-width direction, while winding around as shown by the arrow F, from the windingstart 61A to the windingend 61B. - The circling
part 62 is formed by thesealant material 61 being pasted on the tire inner surface in parallel with the tire-circumferential direction. The plurality of circlingparts 62 are arranged in parallel so as to be adjacent in a state close to each other in the tire-width direction. The plurality oftransition parts 63 slope with a predetermined angle relative to the tire-circumferential direction, and are arranged in parallel so as to be adjacent in a state close to each other. - The
transition parts 63 are provided aligned at predetermined positions in the tire-circumferential direction. Thetransition part 63 is a portion at which thesealant material 61 transitions to one side in the tire-width direction (right side inFig. 5 ), after one circlingpart 62 is formed by thesealant material 61 being pasted for about one turn on the tire inner surface. The next circlingpart 62 is pasted, through thetransition part 63, to be adjacent at one side in the tire-width direction of the pasted circlingpart 62. The next circlingpart 62 adjacent on one side in the tire-width direction is repeatedly formed via thetransition part 63, whereby thesealant layer 60 is formed. Upon pasting thesealant material 61 to the tire inner surface in this way, the pasting method of sequentially arranging and pasting in the tire-width direction the circlingparts 62 parallel in the tire-circumferential direction while passing through thetransition parts 63 may be referred to as step pasting below. - As the
sealant material 61, for example, it is possible to use a sealing member having stickiness made by blending a plasticizer such as polyisobutylene and polybutene, a tackifier such as a thermoplastic olefin/diolefin copolymer, and a filler such as carbon black and silica, into unvulcanized or semi-vulcanized butyl rubber, for example. It should be noted that, not limiting thereto, thesealant material 61 may be another known sealing member that is being used conventionally. In addition, it is preferable to include a characteristic of the fluidity being low and hardly flowing even during high-speed running. -
Fig. 6 is a view schematically showing an example of a method of applying thesealant material 61 to the tire inner surface in the step pasting. InFig. 6 , a width-direction cross section of thetire 1 is shown, and the tire-width direction X, tire-radial direction Y and tire-circumferential direction R are respectively shown. To step paste thesealant material 61, it is possible to perform by discharging and coating thesealant material 61 onto the inner surface of thetire 1, from thenozzle 100, while rotating thetire 1 around the axis line G, and moving thenozzle 100 in the tire-width direction, as shown inFig. 6 . Thenozzle 100 is attached to the leading end of an extruder (not shown), and is inserted to the inner side of thetire 1. Thesealant material 61 extruded from this extruder is discharged and coated on the inner surface of thetire 1 from the leading end of thenozzle 100. - One circling
part 62 is coated by rotating thetire 1 approximately one time in a state stopping movement in the tire-width direction, while discharging thesealant material 61 continuously from thenozzle 100, and while continuously rotating thetire 1 around its axis. Next, when moving thenozzle 100 to one side in the tire-width direction by the width of thesealant material 61, thetransition part 63 is coated meanwhile. Next, the movement in the tire-width direction is stopped, and the circlingpart 62 next to the previously coated circlingpart 62 is coated. By repeating the above operation, it is possible to step paste thesealant material 61 onto the formation area of thesealant layer 60. When coating and pasting thesealant material 61 to the entirety of the formation area of thesealant layer 60, discharge ofsealant material 61 from thenozzle 100 stops. Thesealant layer 60 is formed by thesealant material 61 in this way. Upon step pasting, it is preferable to determine the windingstart 61A so that the coating amount does not vary at the left side and right side of the tire-width direction center. - It should be noted that, as shown in
Fig. 6 , the cross-sectional shape of thesealant material 61 discharged from thenozzle 100 and pasted on the tire inner surface is preferably a substantially rectangular shape. It is thereby possible to equalize the thickness as thesealant layer 60. In addition, the adjacent circlingparts 62 are in close contact with each other in the tire-width direction, and a gap hardly occurs between the circlingparts 62. - In the case of the
sealant material 61 being step pasted to the tire inner surface in the above way, the initial circlingpart 62A on one end side in the tire-width direction (left side inFig. 5 ) formed first among the plurality of circlingparts 62 has a first sealant material increasing part 62A1 which overlaps in the tire-thickness direction at thetransition part 63 from the initial circlingpart 62A to the next circlingpart 62, as shown inFig. 5 . In addition, thefinishing circling part 62B on the other end side in the tire-width direction (right side inFig. 5 ) formed last has a second sealant material increasing part 62B1 which overlaps in the tire-thickness direction with thetransition part 63 transitioning to thefinishing circling part 62B. The first sealant material increasing part 62A1 is a triangular portion at which thetransition part 63 overlaps over the windingstart 61A. The second sealant material increasing part 62B1 is a triangular portion at which the windingend 61B overlaps over thetransition part 63. - According to the
tire 1 of the aforementioned embodiment, in the case of a nail or the like poking thetread 20, for example, and a hole that reaches thesealant layer 60 occurring, this hole is automatically plugged by thesealant layer 60, and the puncture is prevented before it happens. - In the
sealant layer 60 formed on the tire inner surface in the above way, the tire-width direction length thereof is larger than the contact width TW, and each of theends 60A on both sides in the tire-width direction of thesealant layer 60 is positioned more to the outer side in the tire-width direction than each of both ends w1, w2 of the contact width TW. Since thecontact surface 25a of thetread 20 is at the inner side of the tire-width direction area of thesealant layer 60, the puncture prevention function by thesealant layer 60 becomes sufficient. On the other hand, the tire-width direction length of thebelt 21 is larger than the tire-width direction length of thesealant layer 60, and each of theends 21A on both sides in the tire-width direction of thebelt 21 is positioned more to the outer side in the tire-width direction than each of theends 60A on both sides in the tire-width direction of thesealant layer 60. Even if heat is generated by the portion of both ends in the tire-width direction of thebelt 21 deforming, this heat thereby tends to be radiated without being hindered by thesealant layer 60. Heat damage of thetire 1 is thereby suppressed. In other words, according to the production method of the embodiment, it is possible to provide a production method of a pneumatic tire which can suppress the occurrence of heat damage, while maintaining the puncture prevention function by thesealant layer 60. - The following effects are exerted by the above-mentioned embodiment.
- (1) The production method of a tire according to the embodiment is a production method of a tire including tread 20 which includes a belt 21, in which a sealant layer 60 is provided at least to an inner surface of the tread 20, the method including: measuring a contact width TW of the tire 1; when defining a tire-width direction length from a tire-width direction center until an end of the contact width TW as CW1, and defining a tire-width direction length from the tire-width direction center until anther end of the contact width TW as CW2, comparing CW1 and CW2 and establishing a larger thereof as CW; establishing a length from the tire-width direction center until an end in the tire-width direction of the belt 21 as BW, and prescribing a tire-width direction length SW of a sealant material coating area on one side in the tire-width direction from the tire-width direction center as CW<SW<BW; and arranging in parallel in the tire-width direction a plurality of annular circling parts 62 of a sealant material 61 extending in the tire-circumferential direction to provide the sealant layer 60, by establishing a tire-width direction length SW x 2 of the sealant material coating area on the inner surface of the tread 20 as a coating area length in the tire-width direction of the sealant material 61, and coating a belt-like sealant material 61 on the coating area in the tire-width direction of the sealant material 61, while circling along the tire-circumferential direction, and while transitioning a path of circling thereof to one direction side of the tire-width direction at least once every circling.
It is thereby possible to provide a production method of a pneumatic tire which can suppress the occurrence of heat damage, while maintaining the puncture prevention function by thesealant layer 60. - (2) In the production method of a tire according to the embodiment, it is preferable for a coating area length in the tire-width direction of the
sealant material 61 to be an integer multiple of a pitch width which is a tire-width direction length of the circlingpart 62. It is thereby possible to evenly arrange thesealant layer 60 relative to the contact width TW of thetread 20 with balance. - Although an embodiment has been explained above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and even if carrying out modifications, improvements and the like in a scope that can achieve the object of the present invention, are included in the scope of the present invention.
